It's time! We're once again offering packages of great-tasting, humanely-raised beef for those readers who live in Minnesota.
(NOTE ADDED 11/19. We've almost sold all the packages. Lordy, that was fast. I need to take inventory tomorrow for a better estimate of the number of packages we actually have. If we still have some left, I'll delete this note!)

Here are the details:
The farm: We make sure the steers have 18 months of natural living---outside, with shelter available in the winter, and shade during the heat of the summer.
The steers: They were bottle-fed as calves, with a bit of grain. Then it was nothing but grass all summer and fall. Then they ate hay during the winter, with a small amount of grain for energy during the cold. Since May of this year, all they ate was fresh grass. No growth hormones given. No non-theraputic antibiotics.
The beef: Tender and great-tasting. You'll find it hard to go back to the beef you buy in stores.
The package: We sell the beef in 25-pound packages. Half of the package is roasts and steaks, the other half is ground beef. Additional ground beef will be available for purchase.

The price: The package is $125, plus a $25 processing fee, for a total of $150. (We spread 1/2 of the processing fee among our customers; we pay the other half.)
Ordering: Call to place your order, or respond by email. Let us know when you're available to come pick up your meat, and we'll set something up--weekdays or weekends---it's up to you! The farm is 60 miles SE of the Twin Cities, on the way to Rochester. (Sorry--we don't ship meat. Just too expensive.)

Dang Catherine, you had me at "Grass Fed," then lost me when you mentioned that you don't deliver! What's a New Yawker to do?
Hey, off-topic, but whatever happened to your Inkslinger blog? I was loving that along with this one!
Yeah, sorry. NY is dairy country---gotta be some farmers who are raising dairy steers for meat.
As for Inkslingers, I folded that into this one---two blogs, Facebook, newsletter, etc. were driving me a little batty. :-)
I try to have a post that focuses on writing, but I can see it's been awhile. Thanks for the nudge...
Hehee Catherine--you mean you CAN'T Do 5 blogs, 3 networking sites, AND have a life?? Uhhh, me neither :)
Love your blog, regardless of subject! Keep up the good work. Now, off to look for local organic meat :)
Tried to send an email yesterday but dont know if it went thru, but would love to have a skein of indian summer. I read "Sheepish" yesterday. Loved the 1st chapter the most,I have had my own encounters with the electric fence!
